This meme was worse when I thought that was a poorly drawn Susie

I could see calling that leaf green or olive

I can’t believe you got him under the tree rather than on top of it

AI slop makes this a shit post, not a shitpost.

My debt is well-controlled and planned for, so while I could pay it off and save myself some interest, and assuming I can’t just put it in savings or invest it, it’d probably be best spent catching up on non essentials.

Full spare set of tires for the car. Wardrobe stock-up. Extra fancy Christmas presents for friends and family, Some new appliances, or furniture, or computer hardware, maybe pick out a vacation spot and book a hotel stay I’d pre-pay for.

Probably need to tweak the settings on whatever display you’re using, or potentially consider investing in a more-modern type of panel depending on what you have now.

Hi, I am that nerd, it’s Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open taskmgr, actually.

…I hope to be able to develop a similar level of nerd when I switch to Linux soon

If a hacker can get into the device remotely it can be an entry point to your home network.

The much bigger concern is that the pathway used to send the remote kill command could very easily be utilized by nefarious actors.

yeah, unfortunately expecting them to understand what fascism means in any sort of complex way is giving them too much credit

In addition to what another poster said about getting an off-site backup hard drive, I would recommend looking into setting up a raid array for data redundancy with your online storage. You don’t want one hard drive failure to make all of your data inaccessible.

I don’t think we can blame COVID for this. /j

ssh

though more seriously you haven’t specified what platform the home server is. if you absolutely need a gui, probably VNC over ssh.

The only way to develop a new habit is to start doing the thing!

this is way more nested ternary operators than I would ever use (which I understand is for the sake of example) but if you rearrange them so that the simplest statements are in the true branches, and use indentation, you can make it at least a little more readable

a = a <= b ? 
    (b < c ? a : d)
    : b <= c ?
        d
        : (a < d ? c : a);

Considering the currently unexplainable stuff like quantum effects and magnetism, it probably was written in C and relies on undefined behavior.

Relish and diced white onion

Yeah you’re putting words in their mouth IMO. I don’t think it’s reasonable to take “technically the bridge had higher throughput when this occurred” and jump all the way to “therefore this is how it should always operate”, that feels like you are trying too hard to read between the lines and creating meaning where there was none.
